Chris Watts
CTO / Co-Founder of NumberEight
Chris is the co-founder and CTO of NumberEight, a London-based AI company that detects user context from smartphone sensors and uses it to build audiences of behaviourally similar users. He is an ex-IBMer, where he researched air pollution sensors and has multiple patents to his name. He holds computer science degrees from Southampton and Cambridge and brings the know-how to achieve the theory of context detection in the real world.
Chris’ team has since produced patent-pending inventions, including efficient techniques for smartphones to process high-frequency data without significant battery impact, the ability to make personal devices work together to adapt to context and mood, and the process of defining groups of people with similar interests using anonymised sensor data.
Follow Chris Watts:
About NumberEight: NumberEight solves mobile addressability at scale by giving new life to untapped 1st party data. The company empowers app developers, ad partners, and advertisers to explore the power of mobex (mobile context) to connect with their users in a relevant, impactful, and most importantly, a private way. They do this through our best-in-class mobile AI software, which predicts the live context of a user (e.g. running, commuting) from sensors present in the device, and then packages them neatly into ID-less behavioural audiences (e.g. joggers, frequent shoppers). All computation happens on-device, thus producing a privacy-by-design solution that guarantees a higher regulatory immunity.
